Pocket bike chamber pipe
On the spree
I have really only made it louder. But the "looks cool" factor has gone up a bit.

Hard to tell. There is no decrease in performance.
Sounds like a dirtbike.

Re: Pocket bike chamber pipe
How much did you change the jetting?
One thing to keep in mind is that the head pipe is probably too long and the pipe too short. I would cut off a couple of inches the stock head pipe and move the expansion chamber further forward. I went through this on my conversion. I am sure that you have done it but get a rear mount on it before you ride it.
Nice conversion.

I did not weld the rear bracket because I figured I would need to change it several times.
Any actual measurements or caculations that would help?

Re: Pocket bike chamber pipe
Too many variables to say exactly. Have you read the jennings book? it is old but is available online here.
Step one would be to up the jetting to prevent you holing the piston.
Step two make some sort of mount to test, your flange is not designed to take the weight.
Your system has a rather long head pipe and is rather short pipe. You can make it work.

I am re-designing this pipe to be a little shorter and to be quieter.
I will end up using it on a big bore spree (44mm.), so the carb on that, will already be upjetted.
Maybe I'll use some heatduct strapping to help support the pipe when I test it.

Re: Pocket bike chamber pipe
Not a bad idea, I cut off and rewelded my strap several times.

Re: Pocket bike chamber pipe
as did i i cut and welded heaps but i also experimented with different shaped chambers to see what the difference was got one on there now that works good i wouldnt say perfect i want to make a new header pipe from the jug down and loose the two 90. bends the factory pipe has
